Emilia Romagna in Silicon Valley

Since 2015 the Emilia-Romagna Region (through the Consortium ART-ER) set a base in Silicon Valley to support startups in their internationalization process and in their approach to the Silicon Valley mindset.

ASTER is the Consortium for innovation and technology transfer of Emilia-Romagna. Its partners are the Emilia-Romagna Regional Government, the six Universities and the National Research Centres located in the region (the National Research Council-CNR, the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development-ENEA, the National Institute for Nuclear Physics-INFN), the Regional Union of Chambers of Commerce, working in collaboration with regional Business Associations and Innovation Centres.
